.TH DH_INSTALLCHANGELOGS 1
.SH NAME
dh_installchangelogs \- install changelogs into package build directories
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B dh_installchangelogs
.I "[-v] [-a] [-i] [-ppackage] upstream"
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
dh_installchangelogs is a debhelper program that is responsible for installing
changelogs into package build directories.
.P
dh_installchangelogs determines if the package is a debian native package,
and if so, it installs debian/changelog into usr/doc/package/changelog in
the package build directory. Otherwise, it installs debian/changelog into
usr/doc/package/changelog.Debian in the package build directory.
.P
If an upstream changelog file is specified as an option, and the package is
not a native debian package, then this upstream changelog will be installed
as usr/doc/package/changelog in the package build directory.
.SH OPTIONS
.TP
.B \-v
Verbose mode; show all commands that modify the package build directory.
.TP
.B \-a
Install changelogs for all architecture dependent packages.
.TP
.B \-i
Install changelogs for all architecture independent packages.
.TP
.B \-ppackage
Install changelogs for the package named "package".
.SH NOTES
The
.B \-a
.B \-i
and
.B \-p
arguments are cumulative. If none are specified, then all packages listed in
the control file will have the changelogs installed into them.
.P
It is an error to specify an upstream changelog file for a debian native
package.
